There will be a work week in the week commencing 1st June. The intention of which is to make improvements to the physical environment within the playing areas. This will be primarily funded by the club supporter scheme, so the amount that can be completed will be based on two things, the amount of funding provided, and the amount of “volunteer help” that we have during the week, volunteers do not need to have previous experience, there should be something for everyone, although it may well involve manual labour. Things I would like to tackle in this first week include.

Finishing the plinth area in B – To concrete this so it is no longer an out of use rubbish dump. The plan is to finish the concrete 2 inches below the top of the existing outer wall, and then lay sand on the top. The idea being referees will then be able to draw rituals within the sand, that can be “raked and rubbed out” for the next referee to put his own stamp on this new unique area.

Preparations and possible installations of LARPTronics- This will largely depend on LARPTronics final quote and money donated via club supporter, but the intention is to create 3 new revolutionary rooms, which in the short term will have referee controlled and programmable lighting within them.

“Tim’s door” in A – This is a new door way planned for area A, which Tim T has the credit for its location, it is deliberately a little secret, but survice to say, it is a great idea, and one that should increase the usable playing area in area A

New entrance to C – The observant amongst you will have noticed the wall between the main corridor and area C collapsed a few weeks ago, (just after the entrance to c). The plan is to re-build it in some fashion, probably incorporating a door as the current entrance to C is ear marked for re-development into a set piece room in the future.

Separation of old H and A – The intention here is to build a wall between old A and H, for those of you who can’t picture it, it’s by the “well room” in A which has become a giant room since the wall fell down, obviously this new wall will have a doorway of some sort.

Replacement of Timber to hobbits arm pit entrance – The ply wood covering on this wall is very rotten and needs replacing.

Replacement of timber to box altar’s and wall in D- The box altar in area D have become fairly unsafe with rot, this is making them less usable so they need to be replaced.

Other things may appear on this list, and it is not fully inclusive, but was here to give an idea of intentions. A chunk of it does depend on volunteered man power so….

The caves will be open from Monday – Friday 1st June to 5th June for a work week. We will be there from 8am to 5pm each day, if you come and help there will be some rewards • At 5pm each day the desk will open for makes to be completed for anyone who has helped that day, this is in addition to normal weekend makes.• Monster points will be rewarded to people that have helped.• At the end of each day I will award a small amount of Character points onto a character of your choice, this award will be based on effort, it won’t necessarily be on ability, but effort.

Places at this time are not limited, but it would be great to know numbers, so I know quantities of building materials to order. So to that end if you’re intending to come and help please take the time to drop me an e-mail beforehand. Also if you have any ideas of what else youd like to see in our playing areas, always feel free to pop over an e-mail.
